Hello! I am Melissa Sherry. I am a mom to 3 boys. I earned the "Grandma status" with my first granddaughter born in May 2012! I am happily married to my sweetheart hubby, Dean. We reside in Washington State.

Please feel free to email me of any corrections needed of friends, Family or transfers of your Family members that are within the guidelines of Find A Grave.

(Transfer requests should be for direct relatives within four generations. This would be your siblings, parents, grandparents, great-grandparents, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. I am usually willing to transfer most family members to you. I would like to know your relationship, no matter how distant, if you would like transfers. Otherwise no transfer.)

If they are just an acquaintance, someone you knew with NO RELATION to you they will not be transferred. Most of my entries here on FAG were put on here with MANY hours of MY work at the local cemeteries.. (Will consider under special circumstances only)

If anyone would like any information added just email me with a note with your name and I will be happy to add it with your name.

Virginia M. TurnerWhat a surprise - thank you so much for the transfer. I do appreciate it very much, as I have done research on the Germans from Kolb, Russia,in Tacoma for so many years - we are all linked together like a small village. Thank you.
